Corsair's modular 650W 80 Plus Gold power supply is on sale for $80

Great price on a high quality PSU.

Take it from us, it's not worth skimping on a generic brand power supply with a questionable reputation. If it goes up in smoke, it can take your system with it. Paying a little more for a name brand PSU is worth it. That doesn't mean you need to spend a fortune on a PSU. The trick is to nab one on sale, as is the case with Corsair's RM650x.

As the model name implies, the RM650x is a 650W PSU and it's currently on sale for $80 on Newegg after a $20 mail-in-rebate.

The RM650x is fully modular, which can be handy when building inside tight confines, such as a small form factor chassis. It is also 80 Plus Gold certified.

This one utilizes a single +12V rail design with 54A available to feed power hungry CPUs and GPUs. As for connectors, things shake out like this:

1 x ATX

1 x EPS

1 x floppy

7 x 4-pin peripheral (Molex)

4 x PCI-Express

8 x SATA

The cables are fully sleeved and several of them are flattened out to make cable management easier.
